hey all, im curently importing a r32 with an rb26 in it,im goin to use it for some track fun only, its all stock apart from a large front mount and some kind of hks zorst, just wondering what power i can push through it with the stock internals? whats safe with rb26s, im goin to change the turbos to some kind of after market with steel wheels before i do anything,as i know they wont last very long. ive tryed to do a few searches but it takes to long with the dial up net speed i have at the moment, any help and advice would be great, thanx dazza.

I'm no expert but can tell you from personal experience it will not only be the power you generate that will crumble your internals, but also the age and condition of your bearings, how much oil pressure your engine is making, whether you're running an oil cooler. My engine shat its bearings running 200RWKW and the engine wasn't all that bad prior to going to the track.

Personally I find the figures quoted in the UK thread unbelievable. My guess would be at some of those higher numbers a 'standard internals' 100,000km GTR engine will be a grenade.

Yerp at the end of the day it all comes down to engine condition,

and your not going to know the full extent unless its pulled down.

then while its pulled down your going to rebuild it right??

yer thanx for that, yer im just tryin to be a tight ass at the moment, but i can see it will come back and bite me in the ass later.

tight ass and gtr usually turn into broke ass and broken gtr.

    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
